Cambrai
20 Nov-7 Dec 1917 — 476 tanks attack without preliminary bombardment and gain more in six hours than Third Ypres did in three months; church bells ring in England — early. The counterattack takes most of it back, but the method of 1918 has been demonstrated.
This is one scene of Chapter 8 — Breaking Points in The Great War, 1914–1918.
